this is beautiful.

i can almost feel the pull towards him as i'm reading.

great job!

yours until the wind changes,

gg

you capture the emotions of love and longing exactly. there are many great lines, including the ending. "the shutters of my insecurities" is a perfect line, and it rings so true. great work.

i love everything you write. honestly.

you inspired me to break away from traditional poetry.

(:

this is a beautiful piece; i'm glad to see you posting more poetry.

"i miss you as wide/as the flat prairie skies" is beautiful. i've never been to a prairie, but i've been to sand dunes, and i just imagine how wide and empty and large they seemed.

i love the idea of insecurity being like shutters.

your diction is perfect.
